Last 2 meetings we talked about Strand 3.11 Robotics, a bit of Artificial intelligence and expert systems.
Watch the following links below so that you will get more ideas on how these things work.
Expert Systems
These are computer systmes which contains knowledge of an human expert. They are designd to solve simple and complex problems by reasoning like an expert.
Robot - automatically guided machine, able to do tasks on its own.
Android - automated machine designed to look and acts like human Cyborg - is a cybernetic organism that replaces part or parts of a human body. Humanoid - is something that has an appearance resembling a human being Sensors - a device that measures a physical quantity and converts the signal into meaningful information that can be understood by humans or machines.
Artificial Intelligence -is the science and engineering of making intelligent machines, especially intelligent computer programs. IT is related to the similar task of using computers to understand human intelligence, but AI does not have a confine itself to methods that are biologically observable.
According to Wikipedia.com it is the feature of the web that facilitates information sharing, interoperability, user-centered design and collaboration. It is PROUSERS.
According to Webopedia it is the WWW that is focused on the ability of people to collaborate and share information online. That Web 2.0 refers to the transition from a static HTML pages to more dynamic web that is more organized and is based on serving web applications to users.
According to Web 2.0 Summit, Web 2.0 is about harnessing collective intelligence.
In the table below, list down 2 Web 2.0 application that is in the market. Each one of you should add 2 Web 2.0 applications.
